EXAMPLES OF RECENT PROJECTS

Precision Articulating Hydraulic Press

INROCK Drilling Systems in Houston, TX is a leading manufacturer of rock drilling and reaming tools for the horizontal directional drilling industry. They contacted Basis Solutions to design and manufacture a specialized machine to hydraulically press a variety of tungsten carbide inserts into their drilling cones with accurately controlled force ranging from 3,000 to 32,000 lb . The machine required PLC-based control of all hydraulic functions, accurate angular and linear positioning augmented by digital readouts, and adaptability to work with a wide variety of inserts over a range of drilling cone sizes.

" Basis Solutions’ work exceeded our expectations. There were a limited number of firms capable of designing and manufacturing the machine we needed. Basis had to overcome a number of engineering challenges in order to complete the project but was able to deliver a product that fit our needs perfectly. Their team was able to develop a product that in our mind leap frogs other existing alternatives in the market. The net result for INROCK was that this new machine materially improved the efficiency, consistency, quality and safety of our carbide press function."

Space-Saving Inventory Hardware

Heat Transfer Tubular Products, LLC, in Conroe, TX is a distributor of various grades of carbon and stainless steel tubes for use in heat exchangers found in process industries such as oil refineries. In 2014, they were considering new construction of additional inventory space serviced by overhead cranes when they contacted Basis Solutions about the design and manufacturing of a rack system that better utilized existing facility space while allowing crane service anywhere in the inventory as well as improved worker access and safety. The results of the project:

"Our facility was in need of a rack system to inventory hundreds of tons of tubular products, historically arranged in floor stacks. Basis Solutions worked closely with us through online meetings to design a system that improved our use of floor space, while vastly increasing inventory accessibility and safety. Basis Solutions handled the project from concept to installation at a fair price. We would definitely work with Basis Solutions for future projects."

Wind Tunnel Laboratory Equipment

JLMLLM Consulting designs and executes low-speed wind tunnel experiments for aerospace, offshore oil & gas and other industries. Basis Solutions has completed many projects for JLMLLM Consulting over the years.

"I needed a model positioning system and had some ideas; Basis took the ideas and specifications, and designed a product that worked and exceeded expectations."

Jorge MartinezPresidentJLMLLM Consulting

"I needed a flexible but stable base for the hardware required in a wind tunnel with different projects in mind. Basis designed and fabricated the best stand within the many limitations of the existing facility."
